Anna Karenina

Character card for Oblonsky

Moby Dick

Melville writes about the “” and the “,” assumes you know what “” means, and casually references , , and as though every reader has spent a season on a whaling ship. Beautiful prose, dense with archaic vocabulary and nautical terms no modern reader uses.
